What matters now

  • The rarer combination: high quality (73/100) AND below fair value. That earns a closer look rather than a quick verdict.
  • The model range is unusually wide ($80.35 to $246.40). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.

Price vs Fair Value (5 years)

$258.61 $125.98 Fair Value $173.19 Jun 2021 Sep 2026

White line = price, green steps = our fair value per fiscal year, dashed = 300-day average. As of Sep 5, 2026.

How to read this chart

60‑month range $125.98 – $258.61 · fair‑value band $80.35 – $246.40 · the $129.09 price screens below the $173.19 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). 1 fiscal year is left out: there the valuation rested on only a fraction of the usual models. Dashed = 300-day average.

Analysis

Constellation Brands Inc Class A (STZ) currently trades at $129.09, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $173.19, implying the stock looks roughly 25.5% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 73/100 (solid quality), in the Consumer Defensive sector. Bull case: the Growth Earnings group reads highest at a median of $190.18 per share, and 12 of the 26 models we run sit above the $129.09 price. Bear case: the Asset-Based group reads lowest at $31.58, and 14 of the 26 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.

Over the trailing twelve months, Constellation Brands Inc Class A generated revenue of $9.1B at a net margin of 18.5%. Revenue declined 11.3% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 22.6%. Net debt stands at $11.1B. Fundamentals as of Sep 5, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $80.35 (bear case) to $246.40 (bull case); at $129.09, the current price sits within that range. Bear and bull are the same models run on conservative and optimistic assumptions (margins, growth, valuation multiples), so a plausible valuation range, not a price target. The share trades about 26% below its 52-week high and 3% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Defensive peers we cover trades at −5% fair-value upside, at 34%, STZ screens cheaper than that median.

Fair Value models

This estimate rests on fiscal year 2026 figures, and about 6 months have passed since. In that time the company retained roughly $2.85 per share, which is 1.6 % of the fair value. The fair value deliberately does not add this in: the models value reported figures, not a projection.

Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted, family-balanced blend. Evidence (0–100) measures how completely this model’s inputs are available: well-fed models carry more weight in the blend. The spread across models is intentional, each one stresses a different value driver; dividend models, for instance, come out structurally low when payout is small. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.

Model Bear Bear = the cautious scenario: the same model computed with conservative anchors (lower growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bull it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target.BaseBull Bull = the optimistic scenario: the same model computed with favourable anchors (higher growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bear it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target. Evidence

Non-valuation factor families (profitability, growth, cashflow, financial strength, momentum …), each academically grounded. Valuation itself sits in the Fair Value and is deliberately excluded here to avoid double-counting.

All values are scores from 0 to 100 (100 = best against fixed, research-based bands), not percentages. The three market factors (momentum, 52-week proximity, low volatility) are displayed but carry zero weight in the headline number: market sentiment is not a business property.
